Krypton - Eradicator (comics) - Netflix

The Eradicator is the given name of four different fictional comic book
characters, appearing in books published by DC Comics. The first
iteration was an antihero character appearing in the Flash series of
comics. The second was a superhero (and sometimes supervillain) having a
recurring role in Superman stories, and the remaining two first appeared
in 2013 and 2017, respectively. The first Superman Eradicator was
originally created as a weapon by the Kryptonians over 200,000 years
ago. The Flash Eradicator was created by Carmine Infantino and Cary
Bates and first appeared in The Flash #314. The first Superman character
was created by writer Roger Stern, and first appeared in Action Comics
Annual #2 (1989).

Krypton - Other versions - Netflix

In a 2001–2002 storyline, Superman visited a version of Krypton which
resembles the Silver Age version of the planet. However, unlike the
Silver Age incarnation of the planet, this version includes “Eradicator
assassins”, giant robots used by General Zod and the Science Council as
part of “the Eradicator solution”, and later by Jor-El against
Kryptonian religious zealots. Superman eventually discovered that this
version of Krypton had been created as a trap for him by the villainous
Brainiac 13, using the Eradicator Matrix, which he had stolen from the
true Krypton along with Jor-El's diaries. The Eradicator Matrix is
described as having been “designed to save Krypton by transforming a
nearby husk of a planet into a habitable paradise”; Brainiac 13 uses it
to transform a planet in the Phantom Zone into a replica of Krypton
based on Jor-El's favorite period in Kryptonian history, and its
inhabitants into Kryptonians. In Action Comics #850, a flashback shows
Jor-El muttering about “damned Eradicators” while preparing to send
Kal-El into space.
